Chapter 140 Chapter 140 The Old Man

The fourth elder brother sneered slightly, and said: "I don't understand why all this is? I always feel that Er Niang is hiding a secret in her heart, but if she doesn't tell it, we have no way of knowing." The two were walking slowly while talking, when they passed by the imperial garden, Su Yan accidentally saw Li Dequan and the eighth elder brother whispering in the distance, she nodded clearly, and said to herself: "No wonder The eighth elder brother always turns danger into good fortune, so he has eyeliner." Hearing this, the fourth elder brother followed her gaze, couldn't help but laughed at himself, and said softly: "This eyeliner used to be mine, but it's a pity that Feng Shui has changed."

Over there, Li Dequan had finished talking with the eighth elder brother, turned around and came here.The fourth elder brother deliberately slowed down when he saw his feet, walked across to Li Dequan, and called: "Li Wenda." Only then did Li Dequan see the fourth elder brother, and greeted him with a smile. When he saw Su Yan next to him, he was also shocked, and said in a broken voice, "Ah? Aren't you the Su Yan who is next to the concubine Xi?" ?” On Su Yan's face, he intentionally put on a perplexed look, and said strangely: "Su Yan? As soon as I entered the palace, I heard many people say that I look like this person. Is it really so?"

Hearing what she said, Li Dequan realized that he had misunderstood the person, and he heard the introduction of the fourth elder brother: "Her surname is Nian, and she is my newly recruited side Fujin." Li Dequan hurriedly saluted Su Yan again, the fourth elder brother supported him with a busy smile, and said: "It's been a long time since I've had a good reunion with Anda, I don't know when Anda will be free, come to my house for a few more drinks. " However, Li Dequan smiled, and replied respectfully: "The kindness of the fourth elder brother is appreciated by the old slave. The emperor is getting old and cannot do without the old slave. .Please forgive me, brother four."

The fourth elder brother smiled lightly, and said: "It's okay, let's talk about it when Anda is free." Li Dequan also smiled, "Look at this time, the emperor should wake up from his siesta, the old servant will leave first." After saying that, he resigned from Si elder brother and Su Yan, and walked on.Unexpectedly, after walking a few steps, Xiao Shunzi ran up from the opposite side in a panic, and shouted loudly: "Godfather, godfather!" The fourth elder brother and Su Yan paused, and Li Dequan reprimanded Xiao Shunzi: "Why are you so flustered? How many times have I told you? This is taboo in the palace, don't always be frizzy."

Xiao Shunzi panicked, and said in a hurry: "That's right, Little Gege is sick. The imperial doctors said they were too busy and refused to go. I would like you to tell the emperor so that the imperial doctors can go and have a look." Li Dequan was taken aback when he heard this, and asked, "Which little Gege?" Xiao Shunzi replied, "It's Empress Xi's little princess." "Her," Li Dequan immediately relaxed when he heard that it was the concubine who was locked in the cold palace, and said in a nonchalant manner, "The emperor has a lot of work going on every day, I'm afraid I don't have time, you should ask the nanny to inform the imperial hospital."

After speaking, he left. Su Yan over there has been secretly paying attention to the movement here. She knew that Xiao Shunzi was the eunuch serving in the Qianqing Palace. After thinking about it, she gently tugged on the sleeve of the fourth elder brother in secret, and turned her chin towards Xiao Shunzi. Lifting it up, he said in a low voice, "Isn't that just a ready-made eyeliner?" The fourth elder brother understood that Su Yan wanted him to be kind to Xiao Shunzi, he hesitated for a while, then turned around and walked towards Xiao Shunzi, asking, "Is Xiao Gege's illness very serious?"

Xiao Shunzi turned around and saw that it was the fourth elder brother, knelt down and kowtowed repeatedly, and begged: "Si elder brother help, fourth elder brother help!" The fourth elder brother turned his head and told Su Yan: "You follow Xiao Shunzi to see Xiao Gege first, and I will go to the imperial hospital to invite the imperial physician." Xiao Shunzi burst into tears when he heard the words, and kowtowed heavily to the fourth elder brother several times.Su Yan hurriedly stopped him and said, "Let's go over quickly, don't delay Xiao Gege's condition."

Only then did Xiao Shunzi get up from the ground in a hurry, and led Su Yan to Elder Brother's place where Little Gege was.On the way, Xiao Shunzi cried to Su Yan: "Since Empress Xi Concubine was imprisoned in the cold palace, they have also become lazy, fishing for three days, drying nets for two days, little Gege often has to go hungry for several meals before they agree Feed once, if I hadn't come to visit often, I'm afraid it would have been..." Xiao Shunzi couldn't help crying while talking. When he got to Xiaogege's room, he saw that there was no one to serve him, so Xiao Shunzi went out to look for the nanny again, and when the nanny was called, the fourth elder brother also came with the imperial doctor.The imperial doctor looked at Xiao Gege first, then took her pulse, couldn't help but sighed a long time, and said: "Little Gege is out of breath."

Xiao Shunzi was stunned when he heard the words, and it took a while for him to react. He stepped forward and knelt at the imperial physician's feet, begging, "No way, imperial physician, please save her, it won't be possible..." The imperial physician shook his head, then turned to look at the fourth elder brother, and asked, "Si elder brother, what should I do?" Because little Gege died young, so according to the rules, he had to be buried on the same day, the fourth elder brother felt a little sad in his heart, and said: "Notify the Ministry of Internal Affairs to be buried as soon as possible within twelve hours."

The imperial physician responded, turned and left to make arrangements.But Xiao Shunzi couldn't hold it any longer, prostrated himself on the ground and burst into tears.The fourth elder brother looked down at him, sighed softly, turned and walked out.Su Yan walked two steps behind him, but stopped again, glanced back at Xiao Shunzi, and thought to himself that now that Little Gege was dead, if he wanted to be kind to him again, it would be impossible. You can't buy true loyalty, you have to think of another way, the best is to let him have a common hatred with your side, so that you can hold him firmly in your hands.

Su Yan suddenly remembered that she had heard that Xiao Shunzi was from the same town as Jubilee, and the relationship between the two was unusual... She thought for a while, then stopped the fourth elder brother, and said, "Si elder brother, I want to stay here to help Can you take a shot?" The fourth elder brother only said that she was sympathetic to Xiao Gege's early death, so he nodded and went out by himself.Su Yan turned around, looked at Xiao Shunzi who was still crying on the ground, and then glanced at the child's young body on the bed, but there was an imperceptible smile on his lips. She stepped forward to comfort Xiao Shunzi a few words in a soft voice, then got up and left elder brother's place, but instead of chasing fourth elder brother, she came to Yongshou Palace alone. In Yongshou Palace, Qing Chuan was taking several maids to wash the gauze curtains hanging in the palace.These things could have been sent to the Laundry Bureau, but Qingchuan felt that she was idle anyway, and the work was not heavy, so she might as well wash it in her own palace.She has always been generous to others, and the maids are not afraid of her. They are sitting in the courtyard washing those gauze curtains, talking and laughing. A court lady came in to report that Nian Fujin of Prince Yong’s Mansion had arrived. Qing Chuan didn’t realize it for a moment, but after thinking about it, she remembered that this was the newly married Fujin of the fourth elder brother, but she didn’t know why she came to find her. She told the maids After continuing to work, he wiped his hands, walked to the stone table in the courtyard and sat down, and said to the maid: "Please come in." After a while, Su Yan came in with the maid, Qing Chuan got up to meet him, but was stunned when he saw Su Yan, "Su Yan?" Su Yan didn't deny it this time, just smiled and said: "Now you should call me Nian Fujin, I'm the fourth elder brother's side Fujin." Qing Chuan didn't care whose Fujin she was, seeing that she was still fine, she was both surprised and happy, and shouted: "Su Yan, are you really not dead?" Su Yan smiled and nodded, "It's a fate, I was saved." She told Qingchuan the truth about what happened after she was mistakenly thrown out by the eunuchs as a dead person, and she only said that she was a blessing in disguise, and was lucky to be rescued by Gu Xiaochun, and she recognized her as a righteous sister. By chance, she became a hereditary general, but she married the fourth elder brother as a side Fujin. Qingchuan was also very happy to hear that Gu Xiaochun had become a hereditary general. She glanced at Su Yan, and couldn't help asking softly, "You don't hate Si elder brother?" Su Yan listened, smiled and shook her head, "Maybe it's fate, after going around a few times, I still came to him." She said, turning her head to look at the couple who were still washing the gauze curtains on the other side of the yard. A court lady, her expression became very soft, said: "They are very similar to us before, aren't they?" Qingchuan nodded slightly. Su Yan sighed, and said: "Recently I have been dreaming a lot, and the dreams are all the scenes from the past. I was thinking that it would be great if people could go back to the past, but unfortunately I can't go back. You made the Eight Fortunes, and I do. After receiving the Four Fujin, it seems that I have gained a lot of honor, but I have also lost a lot." After hearing this, Qingchuan asked her, "How are you?" Su Yan nodded and said, "Okay." Qing Chuan smiled and said, "It's fine. Isn't the word 'good' the most rare thing in a person's life?" Su Yan also smiled, paused but said in a low voice: "But there is one person who is not good." She raised her eyes to Qing Chuan and asked, "Do you still remember the Empress Xi?" Qing Chuan also remembered what was still in Chuxiu Palace, and couldn't help but replied: "Of course I remember." Su Yan sighed, and said in a low voice: "It's okay for her to be self-inflicted, but her daughter has no one to take good care of her. I went to the palace today to see that little Gege, and she was only a handful of bones. I want to take care of her more, but I am powerless, and I don't know how long she can survive in this palace without the care of my mother." Qing Chuan was silent when she heard the words, Su Yan said that since she has become the fourth elder brother's side Fujin, she will go back to Yongwang Mansion and cannot stay in the palace for a long time, but she, although married to the eighth elder brother, has been living in Yongshou Palace Here, she thought for a while and asked, "You want me to take care of her?" Su Yan sighed: "No matter how Jubilee treats us, she is always a poor person, not to mention that child is always innocent." Hearing what she said, Qingchuan responded, "Don't worry, I will take good care of her." Su Yan looked up at her silently for a moment, and couldn't help but sighed with a smile: "I know, the Qingchuan in my impression has always been a very kind girl. Although kindness always makes you suffer a lot, but you always don't care about it." Lesson learned." Qing Chuan said softly: "You must always be worthy of your own conscience." Su Yan smiled, and chatted with Qing Chuan about other gossip, then got up to leave, Qing Chuan personally sent her out of Yongshou Palace, and continued to see her, but Su Yan waved her hand with a smile, and said: " Go back quickly, I will come here in the future, there is no need to be so polite between you and me." After hearing this, Qingchuan smiled and nodded, watching Suyan turn into the tunnel. Su Yan didn't leave the palace, she looked back at the direction of Yongshou Palace and smiled, then turned and went to the Leng Palace where the concubine Xi was. The Jubilee is no longer the young, beautiful and domineering woman in the past. Not only is her appearance much older and haggard, but her personality is also a bit stupid. Thanks to Xiao Shunzi's secret care, she survived in the cold palace.But mentally, there are good times and bad times. There is nothing else to do every day, just sitting in front of the mirror and looking at herself, hoping that Kangxi can release her as soon as possible. When Su Yan entered, Jubilee was still sitting in front of the mirror, and when she saw Su Yan reflected in the mirror, she was shocked and asked, "Who are you?"
